It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas ... or Hanukkah depending on your neighborhood. My neighbors' Hanukkah decorations have everyone on the block beat. Multiple inflatables, signs, etc. I haven't even hung my wreath on the front door. But I did get some specially carved snowmen for every member of the family, handmade by Melvin and delivered today. There's even one for Boo, our Miniature Schnauzer.
I love this time of year. I keep thinking that my shopping is done, but then I go out and buy more stuff. I really think I'm pretty much done now. I think. As usual, I've overdone it. I think. But I've had fun, and I enjoy giving. And receiving. Not sure which I like more. :)
I sent out my Christmas cards yesterday. So I'm pretty psyched that that task is done. Stickers, stamps, stuffing, labels. But I did hand-address the cards this year. Not that anyone will notice (or they will now), but I thought that was a nice touch.
If I don't blog before next year, I hope everyone has a happy holiday season. The boys will be out of school for two and a half weeks. Not sure if that's good or not. :) We'll have fun, though, especially if the weather cooperates.
On another note. Pray for Ben. He is having minor surgery on January 4th. General anesthesia, though. Message me or email me for more details if you're interested.
Merry Holidays and Happy Christmas!
Kim & family
